About the Role

Company Description

  • Mount Maunganui, Bay of Plenty
  • $35 – $50 per hour
  • Build a hands-on career in a growing technical trade with Pirtek.

Join a well-established NZ hydraulic service franchise specialising in on-site hose replacement and industrial fluid solutions. Backed by proven systems, strong safety processes and a fully equipped workshop, the team supports customers across many industries; helping keep critical machinery running every day.

We’re looking for a proactive, customer-focused Mobile Service Hose Technician to service the Tauranga/Bay of Plenty region. 

If you enjoy practical work, variety in your day and being out on the road solving real problems, this could be a great fit.

Job Description

This is a dynamic, hands-on role combining field service and workshop work. You’ll be the face of the business with customers, responding to breakdowns, fabricating hoses and providing practical hydraulic solutions. Permanent, full-time employment in Tauranga, Monday to Friday, plus paid overtime through participation in a three-weekly rotating on-call roster supporting our 24/7 breakdown service.  No two days are the same.
Key responsibilities:

  • Respond promptly to customer breakdowns and service requests.
  • Manufacture and fit hydraulic hoses on-site and in the workshop.
  • Diagnose faults and provide safe, practical repair solutions.
  • Deliver professional, friendly customer service.
  • Maintain your service vehicle, tools and stock levels.
  • Follow all health & safety procedures.
  • Participate in a rotating on-call roster.

You’ll receive training on products, systems and safety standards, setting you up for long-term success.

Qualifications

You’re mechanically minded, reliable and enjoy problem-solving in the field. You take pride in your work, communicate well with customers and can manage your day independently.  Ideally you’ll bring:

  • Full NZ driver’s licence.
  • Mechanical or engineering background (hydraulics experience an advantage).
  • Strong problem-solving ability and customer focus

Experience with manual lathes, hydraulic component rebuilds or cylinder repairs is a bonus but not essential. Attitude, reliability and willingness to learn matter most.

  • Competitive salary based on experience (a package will be negotiated with the successful applicants based on Skills & Experience)
